A few days ago, I wrote that my son, Tim, scored his first ace on St. Patrick's Day. After a few cursory congratulations to him from the cart boys and the foursome that played in front of us at Pawleys Plantation, we left the course for our condo nearby.
I have been feeling a little guilty ever since because I did not buy drinks for everyone in the clubhouse. But Tim is under the drinking age, disdains alcohol and did not want to make any deal about his achievement.
So, I ask, should I have left a couple of hundred on the bar, or does Tim’s age preclude my obligation? I will provide a copy of Zagat’s 2006/07 Guide to America’s Top Golf Courses to the first five who respond, regardless of whether you coddle me or not. (Note: You need to register to leave a comment, but I promise not to bombard you with emails or share your information).
"We haven't had a stand-alone project in seven to eight years." -- Damian
Pascuzzo, past president of the American Society of Golf Course Architects,
indicating that all new golf course development has been connected to real
estate development. According to the National Golf Foundation, the U.S. lost a
net of 26 golf courses last year.
“If we go in and screw around with their design, they’re gone forever.” -- Gil Hanse, golf course architect, on his respect for the original designs of golf courses and his restraint when working on them.
Pascuzzo and Hanse took part in a panel discussion of architects at the recent Golf Industry Show in Anaheim, Calif.
